This simple Greek Revival style building was built in 1868 by the First Congregational Church. In 1897 the building was moved by the "Old School Lutheran Congregation" to a different location. In 1926 the building was purchased by the I.O.O.F. and moved to its present location. It was designated at the time as I.O.O.F. Lodge #99. Later it was home to Pleasant Ridge School which moved its headquarters elsewhere. It's currently being used by the school in some capacity to this day.
